Tip To provide enough space to attach the cable-management brackets to the chassis in the rack easily, ensure that you use
the rack-mount bracket ear holes specified in Step 4.
Step 4 Hold the chassis in position against the mounting rails and perform these steps:
a. The Cisco ASR 1002-X Router rack-mount bracket has four ear holes and two for the cable-management brackets.
Insert the bottom screw into the fifth hole from the top of the rack-mount ear, and use a hand-held screwdriver to tighten
the screw to the rack rail.
b. Insert the top screw into the second hole from the top of the rack-mount bracket ear hole diagonally from the bottom
screw, and tighten the screw to the rack rail. See Figure 2.
Step 5 Repeat Steps 3 and Step 4 for the other side of the chassis.
Note If you use the specified rack-mount bracket ear holes, the cable-management brackets can be easily attached to the
rack-mount bracket after the chassis is in the rack.
This completes the procedure for installing the chassis in a two-post rack. Proceed to the procedure described in the “Attach a
Cable-Management Bracket” section on page 6 to continue the installation.
Attach a Cable-Management Bracket
The cable-management bracket should be mounted to each rack-mount bracket on the chassis to provide cable-management to
both sides of the chassis. These brackets are mounted to the rack-mount brackets using screws to allow easy installation and
removal of cables.
The cable-management bracket for the Cisco ASR 1002-X Router contain one independent cable-management U type device
with two screws for each bracket, and provides cable dressing for each card module slot. In the ASR 1000 Series SPA interface,
these brackets work in tandem with the SPA product feature cable-management device to allow the installation and removal of
adjacent cards without the need to remove cables.
Note Ensure that the cable-management bracket U type device is facing upwards when you attach it to the chassis.
Perform these steps to attach the cable-management brackets to both sides of the Cisco ASR 1002-X Router in the rack:
Step 1 Align the cable-management bracket to the rack-mount bracket on one side of the Cisco ASR 1002-X Router. The
cable-management bracket should be aligned to the top hole of the chassis rack-mount bracket.
Step 2 Using a Phillips screwdriver, insert a screw through the cable-management bracket and into the chassis rack-mount
bracket, and tighten the screw.
Note Use the package of four screws that came with your Cisco ASR 1002-X Router.
Step 3 Using the bottom rack-mount ear hole, insert the screw through the cable-management bracket and into the chassis
rack-mount bracket. Figure 3 shows the cable-management brackets attached to the chassis.
